the G35 sedan is from what i understand the same car as the R35, not 34 skyline. looks identical, and being that the skyline is a luxury car, id guess the inside is the same.

IM pretty sure ure thinking of the G35 being the same as the 350z. Which it basicly is same engine and tranny same materials used to build it. Nissan and Infiniti are essentially the same company like honda and acura.

They are going to come out with a new skyline. It no longer has a TT 6cyl, it will have a V8. They are AWD and damn fast. The R34 was rated at 276hp, i belive. All of Japans cars are under rated, by law they cant have any more hp then 276.Try this Motorex.net

It's not a law, it was a gentlemans agreement between the manufacturers which has since dissolved.

Skylines and NSX's are insanely expensive and performance for the money ratio of the NSX is just pathetic. Of course there is the supra, rx-7 argument, but these in stock form are not much if any better than our domestic v8s. So in reality, nothing from Japan is underrated. And if you choose to respond, keep it friendly, i have no intention of starting any import-domestic wars.

You missunderstood him, japanese sports cars are underrated from the factory, just like Fbodies are underrated. By their agreement no one would produce a car with more than 276 horsepower, however when you look at their performance and dyno numbers they actually make a lot more.

But for quality and value per dollar, they are overrated. My old civic wore out faster than any domestic i've owned.

Underated like the 240hp (rated) Honda S2000 that averages 200 wheel with an m6 on the dyno? Gimme a break. Back on topic though DAn95 is right G35=350Z but ones a slightly more luxurious company. You get a little extra for the extra cash you spend on the inside and more class in the styling outside but essentially you still have a 350z.
